Playa de los Boliches is an urban beach of fine dark sand in front of the Los Boliches district of Fuengirola, on the Costa del Sol. It runs for 1,100 metres with a width of 40 metres, between Playa de las Gaviotas and Playa de Fuengirola, and the water is usually calm, mostly entering gradually over a soft sandy seabed.

Concessions rent sunbeds and parasols, and there is free space for your own umbrella. Lifeguard posts line the beach, alongside toilets, showers, foot rinses, a children's area, a sports zone, water-sports hire and a nautical club. Access is easy on foot. Behind the sand runs the seafront promenade, lined with cafés, seafood restaurants, bars, hotels and shops.
